Question

Five hundred twelve people visited a ski resort last week. The resort hopes to triple the number of weekly visitors by advertising. How many visitors does the resort want each week?

Answer 1

Five hundred twelve = 512

Key word: Triple

Triple = ×3

That being said, you multiply the amount of people that visited the ski resort last week and the amount there hoping to triple.

512×3=1,536

That being said, 1,536 is the correct answer!

I hope this helps! :)
